McDtlon The Review when you write. 



The Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- 

 ciation reports the arrival of Darwin 

 tulips January 18. The directors of 

 that organization held a meeting that 

 evening, but the two facts are not re- 

 lated; it was the quarterly conference. 



The A. L. Randall Co., handling many 

 lines of merchandise sold in many kinds 

 of storesand covering the entire United 

 States with its salesmen, is in a position 

 of unusual advantage to judge of busi- 

 ness conditions. Sales Manager Galavan 

 says florists, as evidenced by their pur- 

 cliascsj are doing a more nearly normal 

 business than is any other class of mer- 

 cliants. 



George Ball obtained twenty-eight 

 pounds of seed of his new aster last 

 season. Between sweet peas and asters 

 he IS working up quite a seed business, 

 with his special strain of calendula in 

 reserve. 



Mrs. Paul R.Klingsporn spent last week 

 in a hospital for tonsillectomy and aden- 

 cctomy. She is convalescing satisfac- 

 torily and Mr. Klingsporn expects to be 

 able to leave for Washington Sunday, 

 with W. J. Keimel, Joseph Kohout, 

 George Asnnis, C. C. Pollworth, J. J. 

 Hess and otliers, to attend the meeting 

 of the S. A. F. board of directors, which 

 opens January 24. 



Edward Hunt resumed his duties 

 January 17, after an illness of ten days,' 

 a part of which was spent in St. Ber- 

 nard 's hospital. 



Otto Gocrisch, for many years with the 

 A. L. Randall Co., January 17 joined the 

 sta/r of tlie J. A. Budlong Co. 



The John C. Moninger Co. reports 

 that inquiries for 1921 building not only 

 are numerous, but that some of tliem al- 

 ready have turned into orders of good 

 size. The Cuyahoga Greenhouse Co., of 

 Cleveland, which built nine houses in 

 1019, and ordered another in December, 

 1920, has now ordered eight more 

 houses, each 546 feet long. They are 

 to be used for vegetables. 



The funeral of Mrs. C. H. McCormick. 

 held .January 19, created a heavy call 

 for flowers of the best class. The E. 

 Wienhoeber Co., on Elm street, had the 

 family order and made a splendid 

 casket cover of valley and orchids. 

 Practically every first-clnss store was 

 represented in the large number of fine
